THREE RIVERS, MI -- Police shot at a fleeing armed suspect Sunday night after an assault at a Three Rivers home.

Three Rivers police were called to the 1200 block of Hov Aire Drive at 10:55 p.m. on the report of a man assaulting a woman with a gun, according to a news release. When officers arrived, they saw the man with the gun and commanded him to drop the firearm.

The suspect fled on foot, still armed with the gun. Officers fired their guns at the suspect, missing him as he ran off, according to the release. A K-9 unit was called to the scene but was unable to find the suspect.

Upon further investigation, investigators learned the suspect had pointed the gun at two adults and a 3-year-old child. One of the victims suffered minor injuries from being grabbed by the suspect, police say. The incident stemmed from a quarrel over a child, according to investigators.

Several hours later, police received a tip on the location of the man. The suspect was found in the Centreville area and taken into the custody without further incident. The man was taken to St. Joseph County Jail on three counts of felonious assault and three counts of felony firearm.

The gun has been recovered, and the incident remains under investigation, police say.
